Grosgrain Ribbon: Close Plain Weave with a Heavy Weft
Grosgrain is a firm, closely woven plain weave with a heavier weft than warp, which gives it ribs running across the width. It is used for hat bands, facings and waistbands. Historically it was silk or wool; this one is cotton, woven narrow on a rigid heddle loom.

For a ribbon 2.5 cm wide and 3 m long, wind enough fine warp threads to fill 2.5 cm of the heddle, each 3.5 m long to allow for tying on and loom waste.

Wind the twine on the shuttle. Weave plain weave: one pass with the heddle up, one with it down, and beat each pick firmly so the weave is close and the heavy weft forms ribs across the ribbon.
